Google Maps decided to celebrate April Fools’ Day early by allowing users to play Pac Man on streets all over the world. Buzzfeed reported that you can insert and interact with the famous retro video game on any Google map. All you have to do is type in an address, click the Pac Man option next to the Google Earth option, and start using your keyboard to gobble up dots and cherries — and to avoid the ghosts, of course.
Thanks to Google, you can now eat your way through neighborhoods all over the city. Go to the Mission and pretend those cherries are burritos even! Though personally, if I was PacMan I would not be down to eat anything I found on the ground on Market St.
